packet: add classic BPF fanout mode
Add fanout mode PACKET_FANOUT_CBPF that accepts a classic BPF program
to select a socket.
This avoids having to keep adding special case fanout modes. One
example use case is application layer load balancing. The QUIC
protocol, for instance, encodes a connection ID in UDP payload.
Also add socket option SOL_PACKET/PACKET_FANOUT_DATA that updates data
associated with the socket group. Fanout mode PACKET_FANOUT_CBPF is the
only user so far.
